Customer Stories Oracle Confidential Internal
Reference Guide 1. Let us start with two customers: HDFC Bank and NAV whose focus was on massive consolidation of commodity infra into Exadata with appropriate consolidation testing and the rapid provisioning of databases. In case of HDFC, it reduced from days to hours and in case of NAV from days to minutes. The time difference is because HDFC is doing RMAN based cloning while NAV is provisioning binaries. 2. The second set of customers, Telecom Italia, PNC Bank focuses on standardization via Service Catalog as evident from the slides. Their aim is to reduce the number of configuration variants. In case of PNC bank, they also provision Standby environments via the Service Catalog, the first customer to do so. Telecom Italia has 200 DBs in the cloud environment today, will move to 2000 by early 2015. 3. Then we get into customers whose use case centers around data refresh. Societe Generale used to spend lot of time and labor just doing refresh for their DevOps environment. They are now using Snap Clone to perform agile data refresh in a storage efficient way. While Energy Transfer spent significant time refreshing their production-like databases in UAT. With EM12c, they can refresh all their databases using RMAN backups in a few clicks.
